Can you please let me know how long you studied (weeks or months) and how long a day. Also, what study materials you used. Thanks! Currently freaking out.
 
ALSO should I take it before orgo 2 or after. My school does not offer organic 2 in the fall and I want to apply in June so....
 
Studied 1 day, took the ADA practice exam the day before I took the real exam.

Lol. Probably what someone out there with a photographic memory would do. It would be like the guy of suits for dentists. "Gowns", starring mid.
 
i studied every day from july to my test in early sept. i dont think you need to take orgo 2, i used chads videos and covered everything from orgo 2 on there, and my highest score was in OC :laugh:
 
1 month review all sections (mostly bio). then 5 weeks of just test questions and reviewing every question over and over again. 22AA 23PAT. 3 weeks before exam started putting in 8-12 hour days. before that, probably 5-8 I'd say. All the hard work was worth it once I got my scores! good luck!!

Also selling some of the materials I have so if your interested send me a PM
 
2 and a half weeks of. 6+ hour studying everyday. Made a 21aa /ts. I really hope I had more time 🙁
